Bill Belichick is currently coaching a historically dominant defense. Unsurprisingly, he's been here before.
"Even bigger than the win was a rare moment in the fourth quarter," a gleeful Gronkowski said. "You smiled! Through nine seasons and even three Super Bowls, I've never seen you with such pure joy on the field."
Putting the Patriots' current status in perspective, spotlighting the rise of Jakobi Meyers and the return of Ben Watson, and of course, having a laugh or two at the Jets' expense.
Yes, the Patriots' defense is great. Historically so. It's time to stop searching for reasons to discount this fact.
Belichick knows that whenever he shows off his knowledge of the rule book, his exploitation of a quirk or a little-known rule tends to lead to a national discussion about how that rule must be changed. Such is the cycle of life in the NFL.
Tom Brady, Jimmy Garoppolo and Jacoby Brissett formed an unbreakable quarterback bond in 2016. Now in 2019, that wolf pack is wreaking absolute havoc on the rest of the NFL.
Last year, it was TB1K, as Tom Brady raced (or plodded) toward 1,000 career rushing yards. This year, Brady is in pursuit of more rushing greatness.
Michael Bennett's playing time -- or lack thereof -- is getting interesting.
Please enjoy the leftover thoughts from the Patriots' vexing, problematic, and oh-so-terrible 35-14 win over the Giants.
The Patriots and Ben Watson parted ways on Monday. But the breakup may not be long-term.
Bill Belichick was asked how he prepares for a quarterback like rookie Daniel Jones, whom he doesn't know very well.
The date is October 7, and yet we are going to sit here and discuss home-field advantage for the AFC Championship Game. Yes, it is that kind of season for the NFL, and the AFC in particular.
Stop me if you've heard this one before: The Patriots' defense utterly and completely dominated an opponent for the entirety of Sunday afternoon's football game.
Technically, Sunday's game was a road game for the New England Patriots. Technically.
Bill Belichick said that Stephen Gostkowski is one of the greatest kickers of all time, but he also has confidence that Mike Nugent can fill his kicking shoe this season.
With Stephen Gostkowski struggling, the Patriots will reportedly work out some kickers on Wednesday. But Bill Belichick didn't want to talk about that.
Patriots head coach Bill Belichick did not quite agree with McDermott's assessment, and on his Monday morning conference call with reporters, Belichick said he agreed with the league's decision on the play.
Sean McDermott did not look like a head coach ready to really compete with the Patriots in the AFC East. Here's 100 reasons why, plus all of the leftover thoughts from the Patriots' 16-10 win.
It wasn't all that long ago that a legitimate concern about the 2019 Patriots revolved around the loss of Brian Flores, the rapid hiring and resignation of Greg Schiano, and the lack of humans and clarity among Patriots defensive coaches. Through three games, with a grand total of three points allowed on defense, those concerns have already been turned into ancient history.
Bill Belichick wasn't in the mood to talk about the Patriots' decision to release Antonio Brown before Sunday's game against the New York Jets.
How much of the Patriots' success is truly legitimate? And how much of that is a product of facing some opponents who just might be among the very worst teams in football this season?
When Bill Belichick takes the podium in Foxboro, he does so with the intention of solely discussing football. He made that clear last week, and he made it clear once again on Friday.
A Patriots fan took her love of the team to a new level when she got coach Bill Belichick tattooed on her leg.
Bill Belichick had plenty of nice things to say about Le'Veon Bell on Wednesday, New York's crafty running back that will threaten New England's touchdown-less streak.
A diehard fan is taking her love of the Patriots to the next level.
